New manager - Who do you want?

Post by bigmac95 » Sun Dec 13, 2020 4:22 pm

In an ideal world, with any pick, I would go with Cowley although I suspect he will be after a League 1 or Championship level club.

I would also like to see the ex-Wigan manager Cook be given a go - again I suspect the finances may not stretch to this.

It is clear we need experience, we also need a proven track record at this level.

At this stage, I would not be keen to see Kelly in charge. I remember the Mickey Moore appointment too well! Although Kelly is certainly better credentialed.

Any other names out there people would fancy?

Kelly taking charge until a new man is appointed (https://www.barrowafc.com/news/2020/dec ... avid-dunn/)

So I guess not.

Surprising. I would have assumed that for weeks now they will have been shopping around and even speaking to one or two parties, albeit whilst genuinely hoping Dunn can turn it around. Hope I’m right

Can’t afford a project. Don’t care what style just keep us up and then we evaluate again

David Flitcroft or Paul Hurst for me.

Flitcroft seems like the sort of character we need right now so would be my first choice.

Both have good records.

From those in the betting market (on Bet Victor) Hurst or Flitcroft appeal most. Just need someone to make sure we are in the football league again next season

IF we can afford him, Graham Alexander wouldn't be a bad shout, finances out the question of course.
